Nicole Miller Janey Best-selling unclassified dresses

I bought this dress at BHLDN about 6 months before my wedding. It was exactly the opposite of what I thought I wanted: I had pictured myself in a very simple, structured, strapless dress -- "no lace!" I told my bridesmaids who were shopping with me. Then I begrudgingly tried this one on, and fell in love with it. I loved having the straps for dancing (no worries about it falling down!) and the open back felt like an elegant addition to an otherwise classic dress. I paired it with drop pearl earrings and a pearl and crystal belt (just wore it over the built-in silk belt); my veil was very simple: fingertip-length and white.
